CVE-2023-52477 2 Linux, Redhat 3 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux, Rhel Eus 2026-01-05 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: hub: Guard against accesses to uninitialized BOS descriptors Many functions in drivers/usb/core/hub.c and drivers/usb/core/hub.h access fields inside udev->bos without checking if it was allocated and initialized. If usb_get_bos_descriptor() fails for whatever reason, udev->bos will be NULL and those accesses will result in a crash: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI CPU: 5 PID: 17818 Comm: kworker/5:1 Tainted: G W 5.15.108-18910-gab0e1cb584e1 #1 <HASH:1f9e 1> Hardware name: Google Kindred/Kindred, BIOS Google_Kindred.12672.413.0 02/03/2021 Workqueue: usb_hub_wq hub_event RIP: 0010:hub_port_reset+0x193/0x788 Code: 89 f7 e8 20 f7 15 00 48 8b 43 08 80 b8 96 03 00 00 03 75 36 0f b7 88 92 03 00 00 81 f9 10 03 00 00 72 27 48 8b 80 a8 03 00 00 <48> 83 78 18 00 74 19 48 89 df 48 8b 75 b0 ba 02 00 00 00 4c 89 e9 RSP: 0018:ffffab740c53fcf8 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffffa1bc5f678000 RCX: 0000000000000310 RDX: fffffffffffffdff RSI: 0000000000000286 RDI: ffffa1be9655b840 RBP: ffffab740c53fd70 R08: 00001b7d5edaa20c R09: ffffffffb005e060 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffffab740c53fd3e R14: 0000000000000032 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffffa1be96540000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000018 CR3: 000000022e80c005 CR4: 00000000003706e0 Call Trace: hub_event+0x73f/0x156e ? hub_activate+0x5b7/0x68f process_one_work+0x1a2/0x487 worker_thread+0x11a/0x288 kthread+0x13a/0x152 ? process_one_work+0x487/0x487 ? kthread_associate_blkcg+0x70/0x70 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 Fall back to a default behavior if the BOS descriptor isn't accessible and skip all the functionalities that depend on it: LPM support checks, Super Speed capabilitiy checks, U1/U2 states setup.
CVE-2023-52475 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2026-01-05 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: powermate - fix use-after-free in powermate_config_complete syzbot has found a use-after-free bug [1] in the powermate driver. This happens when the device is disconnected, which leads to a memory free from the powermate_device struct. When an asynchronous control message completes after the kfree and its callback is invoked, the lock does not exist anymore and hence the bug. Use usb_kill_urb() on pm->config to cancel any in-progress requests upon device disconnection. [1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=0434ac83f907a1dbdd1e
CVE-2023-52458 2 Linux, Redhat 3 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux, Rhel Eus 2026-01-05 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: add check that partition length needs to be aligned with block size Before calling add partition or resize partition, there is no check on whether the length is aligned with the logical block size. If the logical block size of the disk is larger than 512 bytes, then the partition size maybe not the multiple of the logical block size, and when the last sector is read, bio_truncate() will adjust the bio size, resulting in an IO error if the size of the read command is smaller than the logical block size.If integrity data is supported, this will also result in a null pointer dereference when calling bio_integrity_free.

CVE-2025-68766 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/mchp-eic: Fix error code in mchp_eic_domain_alloc() If irq_domain_translate_twocell() sets "hwirq" to >= MCHP_EIC_NIRQ (2) then it results in an out of bounds access. The code checks for invalid values, but doesn't set the error code. Return -EINVAL in that case, instead of returning success.
CVE-2025-68765 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mt76: mt7615: Fix memory leak in mt7615_mcu_wtbl_sta_add() In mt7615_mcu_wtbl_sta_add(), an skb sskb is allocated. If the subsequent call to mt76_connac_mcu_alloc_wtbl_req() fails, the function returns an error without freeing sskb, leading to a memory leak. Fix this by calling dev_kfree_skb() on sskb in the error handling path to ensure it is properly released.
CVE-2025-68764 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFS: Automounted filesystems should inherit ro,noexec,nodev,sync flags When a filesystem is being automounted, it needs to preserve the user-set superblock mount options, such as the "ro" flag.
CVE-2025-68763 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: starfive - Correctly handle return of sg_nents_for_len The return value of sg_nents_for_len was assigned to an unsigned long in starfive_hash_digest, causing negative error codes to be converted to large positive integers. Add error checking for sg_nents_for_len and return immediately on failure to prevent potential buffer overflows.
CVE-2025-68762 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: netpoll: initialize work queue before error checks Prevent a kernel warning when netconsole setup fails on devices with IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL flag. The warning (at kernel/workqueue.c:4242 in __flush_work) occurs because the cleanup path tries to cancel an uninitialized work queue. When __netpoll_setup() encounters a device with IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL, it fails early and calls skb_pool_flush() for cleanup. This function calls cancel_work_sync(&np->refill_wq), but refill_wq hasn't been initialized yet, triggering the warning. Move INIT_WORK() to the beginning of __netpoll_setup(), ensuring the work queue is properly initialized before any potential failure points. This allows the cleanup path to safely cancel the work queue regardless of where the setup fails.
CVE-2025-68761 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hfs: fix potential use after free in hfs_correct_next_unused_CNID() This code calls hfs_bnode_put(node) which drops the refcount and then dreferences "node" on the next line. It's only safe to use "node" when we're holding a reference so flip these two lines around.
CVE-2025-68760 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/amd: Fix potential out-of-bounds read in iommu_mmio_show In iommu_mmio_write(), it validates the user-provided offset with the check: `iommu->dbg_mmio_offset > iommu->mmio_phys_end - 4`. This assumes a 4-byte access. However, the corresponding show handler, iommu_mmio_show(), uses readq() to perform an 8-byte (64-bit) read. If a user provides an offset equal to `mmio_phys_end - 4`, the check passes, and will lead to a 4-byte out-of-bounds read. Fix this by adjusting the boundary check to use sizeof(u64), which corresponds to the size of the readq() operation.
CVE-2025-68759 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtl818x: Fix potential memory leaks in rtl8180_init_rx_ring() In rtl8180_init_rx_ring(), memory is allocated for skb packets and DMA allocations in a loop. When an allocation fails, the previously successful allocations are not freed on exit. Fix that by jumping to err_free_rings label on error, which calls rtl8180_free_rx_ring() to free the allocations. Remove the free of rx_ring in rtl8180_init_rx_ring() error path, and set the freed priv->rx_buf entry to null, to avoid double free.
CVE-2025-68758 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: backlight: led-bl: Add devlink to supplier LEDs LED Backlight is a consumer of one or multiple LED class devices, but devlink is currently unable to create correct supplier-producer links when the supplier is a class device. It creates instead a link where the supplier is the parent of the expected device. One consequence is that removal order is not correctly enforced. Issues happen for example with the following sections in a device tree overlay: // An LED driver chip pca9632@62 { compatible = "nxp,pca9632"; reg = <0x62>; // ... addon_led_pwm: led-pwm@3 { reg = <3>; label = "addon:led:pwm"; }; }; backlight-addon { compatible = "led-backlight"; leds = <&addon_led_pwm>; brightness-levels = <255>; default-brightness-level = <255>; }; In this example, the devlink should be created between the backlight-addon (consumer) and the pca9632@62 (supplier). Instead it is created between the backlight-addon (consumer) and the parent of the pca9632@62, which is typically the I2C bus adapter. On removal of the above overlay, the LED driver can be removed before the backlight device, resulting in: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000010 ... Call trace: led_put+0xe0/0x140 devm_led_release+0x6c/0x98 Another way to reproduce the bug without any device tree overlays is unbinding the LED class device (pca9632@62) before unbinding the consumer (backlight-addon): echo 11-0062 >/sys/bus/i2c/drivers/leds-pca963x/unbind echo ...backlight-dock >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/led-backlight/unbind Fix by adding a devlink between the consuming led-backlight device and the supplying LED device, as other drivers and subsystems do as well.
CVE-2025-68757 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/vgem-fence: Fix potential deadlock on release A timer that expires a vgem fence automatically in 10 seconds is now released with timer_delete_sync() from fence->ops.release() called on last dma_fence_put(). In some scenarios, it can run in IRQ context, which is not safe unless TIMER_IRQSAFE is used. One potentially risky scenario was demonstrated in Intel DRM CI trybot, BAT run on machine bat-adlp-6, while working on new IGT subtests syncobj_timeline@stress-* as user space replacements of some problematic test cases of a dma-fence-chain selftest [1].

CVE-2025-68756 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: Use RCU in blk_mq_[un]quiesce_tagset() instead of set->tag_list_lock blk_mq_{add,del}_queue_tag_set() functions add and remove queues from tagset, the functions make sure that tagset and queues are marked as shared when two or more queues are attached to the same tagset. Initially a tagset starts as unshared and when the number of added queues reaches two, blk_mq_add_queue_tag_set() marks it as shared along with all the queues attached to it. When the number of attached queues drops to 1 blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set() need to mark both the tagset and the remaining queues as unshared. Both functions need to freeze current queues in tagset before setting on unsetting BLK_MQ_F_TAG_QUEUE_SHARED flag. While doing so, both functions hold set->tag_list_lock mutex, which makes sense as we do not want queues to be added or deleted in the process. This used to work fine until commit 98d81f0df70c ("nvme: use blk_mq_[un]quiesce_tagset") made the nvme driver quiesce tagset instead of quiscing individual queues. blk_mq_quiesce_tagset() does the job and quiesce the queues in set->tag_list while holding set->tag_list_lock also. This results in deadlock between two threads with these stacktraces: __schedule+0x47c/0xbb0 ? timerqueue_add+0x66/0xb0 schedule+0x1c/0xa0 schedule_preempt_disabled+0xa/0x10 __mutex_lock.constprop.0+0x271/0x600 blk_mq_quiesce_tagset+0x25/0xc0 nvme_dev_disable+0x9c/0x250 nvme_timeout+0x1fc/0x520 blk_mq_handle_expired+0x5c/0x90 bt_iter+0x7e/0x90 blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter+0x27e/0x550 ? __blk_mq_complete_request_remote+0x10/0x10 ? __blk_mq_complete_request_remote+0x10/0x10 ? __call_rcu_common.constprop.0+0x1c0/0x210 blk_mq_timeout_work+0x12d/0x170 process_one_work+0x12e/0x2d0 worker_thread+0x288/0x3a0 ? rescuer_thread+0x480/0x480 kthread+0xb8/0xe0 ? kthread_park+0x80/0x80 ret_from_fork+0x2d/0x50 ? kthread_park+0x80/0x80 ret_from_fork_asm+0x11/0x20 __schedule+0x47c/0xbb0 ? xas_find+0x161/0x1a0 schedule+0x1c/0xa0 blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait+0x3d/0x70 ? destroy_sched_domains_rcu+0x30/0x30 blk_mq_update_tag_set_shared+0x44/0x80 blk_mq_exit_queue+0x141/0x150 del_gendisk+0x25a/0x2d0 nvme_ns_remove+0xc9/0x170 nvme_remove_namespaces+0xc7/0x100 nvme_remove+0x62/0x150 pci_device_remove+0x23/0x60 device_release_driver_internal+0x159/0x200 unbind_store+0x99/0xa0 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x112/0x1e0 vfs_write+0x2b1/0x3d0 ksys_write+0x4e/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x160 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53 The top stacktrace is showing nvme_timeout() called to handle nvme command timeout. timeout handler is trying to disable the controller and as a first step, it needs to blk_mq_quiesce_tagset() to tell blk-mq not to call queue callback handlers. The thread is stuck waiting for set->tag_list_lock as it tries to walk the queues in set->tag_list. The lock is held by the second thread in the bottom stack which is waiting for one of queues to be frozen. The queue usage counter will drop to zero after nvme_timeout() finishes, and this will not happen because the thread will wait for this mutex forever. Given that [un]quiescing queue is an operation that does not need to sleep, update blk_mq_[un]quiesce_tagset() to use RCU instead of taking set->tag_list_lock, update blk_mq_{add,del}_queue_tag_set() to use RCU safe list operations. Also, delete INIT_LIST_HEAD(&q->tag_set_list) in blk_mq_del_queue_tag_set() because we can not re-initialize it while the list is being traversed under RCU. The deleted queue will not be added/deleted to/from a tagset and it will be freed in blk_free_queue() after the end of RCU grace period.
CVE-2025-68755 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-01-05 N/A
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: most: remove broken i2c driver The MOST I2C driver has been completely broken for five years without anyone noticing so remove the driver from staging. Specifically, commit 723de0f9171e ("staging: most: remove device from interface structure") started requiring drivers to set the interface device pointer before registration, but the I2C driver was never updated which results in a NULL pointer dereference if anyone ever tries to probe it.
